12972, Question on Coilovers
Posted by Snail_GS, Oct-26-02 09:27 AM
If I were to install coilovers on stock strut/shock or whatever would I have to worry about anything going bad after a while? if its something i can just upgrad without worrying about something going wrong then ill do it later. was looking at Maxspeed cause of the price, was looking at skunks cause i heard they where good, tell me what you guys think and what coilovers *any brand* around 100-300 dollars. Im on stock hight :-( just need to be droped asap

Your stock shocks will be blown very soon if you just throw coilovers on. There are some extreme cases where people have dropped on stock shocks and they didn't blow, but it's very rare.. better safe then sorry.

I would upgrade your shocks to aftermarket ones if you want to do coilovers. Koni's and GYB's will work with coilovers, illuminas, because of the way the perch is designed, won't hold coilovers properly.

I personally wouldn't recommend 'coilovers' because they aren't TRUE coilovers. :)
